Hi Roman,
This method was added as part of the changes for 4868820: "IPv6 support
for Windows XP and 2003 server", back in 1.5. But I cannot see anywhere
that it is called, or as you said even implemented, even when it was
originally added. I suspect that it was left over from some redesign
when adding the IPv6 support.
I actually noticed this went adding support for the dual TCP/IP stack in
vista, DualStackPlainSocketImpl, and even added a comment to remind me
to remove it!
I will file a new bug against this to have it removed and update this
mailing list with the bug number when I have it.
-Chris.

Hi list,
The PlainSocketImpl family of classes have a method socketGetOption1(),
which is required by the AbstractPlainSocketImpl class, and implemented
by the subclasses, but apparently never used. There isn't even a native
implementation for the native method in PlainSocketImpl. Could this
method be removed, or is there another story behind this?
